try a small punch and a hammer to make a notch in the screw head and turn it out that way.

I had that happen to me also. But I was putting on a polished cover anyway so I just took a small grinder with a cutting disk on and cut a groove into the screw.

man its always one,but anyways what i did was pound a phillips head screw driver into the screw and put my weight at the top of the driver and twisted it while holding my weight to to.Also you can get a impact driver but their kind of a pain to use.
